This gem of a song, performed by Akiko Kikuchi, a singer who epitomizes the Showa era, eloquently expresses the profound sorrow and anger of women living through the turmoil of the postwar period.
Her tender yet resolute voice resonates deeply, embracing the image of women who remain dignified even as they are buffeted by life’s rough seas.

Parody of ‘Waltz of Starlight’: ‘Waltz of the Sixtieth Birthday’Sen Masao
Let’s try arranging Masao Sen’s famous song that sings about the feelings of parting into a 60th-birthday version and take on a parody! Here are some ideas for “Kanreki no Waltz,” a parody of “Hoshikage no Waltz.” The original “Hoshikage no Waltz” is memorable for its lyrics that express the pitiable emotions budding within oneself and the feelings of thinking about the other person.
In contrast, “Kanreki no Waltz” seems to center on a couple who lean on each other, wishing for a bright old age together.
You can sense lyrics that make you chuckle and a positive energy that encourages a forward-looking outlook.
